Socialist Party USA: Shut Down Wall St.! (http://www.independentpoliticalreport.com/2011/09/socialist-party-usa-shut-down-wall-st/)


Independent Political Report
September 26th, 2011


There is a Shut Down Wall St. page linked from the front page of the Socialist Party USA (http://socialistparty-usa.org/occupywallstreet.html). Strangely, as of this time, I have not found other Socialist Parties commenting about the Occupy Wall Street protest, as I would have expected.

They have a very short statement (“The Socialist Party USA supports the mobilizations to occupy Wall St. in New York and various cities across the US and encourages our locals to take part in these actions.”), a livestream from globalrevolution at livestream.com, a link to www.occupywallst.org, “Actions in other Locations:
http://occupytogether.org/” and links to protests in LA, Philadelphia and Boston, with contact information including facebook, email, and twitter.
